The singer, along with collaborator Pharrell, has lost the first legal battle against the Marvin Gaye Family. Judge John Kronstradt has ruled in favor of the Gaye family after a team of music experts proved that elements of the smash hit reflected substantial similarities to Marvin’s song “Got to Give It Up.” While Thicke, Pharrell and even T.I. attempted to protect themselves by filing a countersuit against Bridgeport Music and the Gaye family, it seems the lawsuit will be a lengthy affair, especially since the Gaye family already declined a 6 figure settlement offered by Robin himself.
